Financial Results for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2011 Revenue for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011 totaled $32.3 million, an increase of 43.8% as compared to $22.4 million for the same period in 2010. The revenue increase was due primarily to the increase in sales of frozen and fresh ginger and other agricultural products and the leasing of more farmland, our marketing strategy and customer loyalty. The average market price of ginger reached $1,366 per ton during fiscal 2011, compared to the average market price of $1,046 per ton for the same period in fiscal 2010.

Cost of sales for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011 totaled $18.7 million, or 57.8% of revenue, an increase of 33.1% compared to $14 million, or 62.5% of revenue, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010. Cost of sales includes the costs associated with the planting, harvesting and maintaining of ginger and other agricultural products. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues decreased mainly due to cost controls associated with planting and production and the market price appreciation of ginger. The Company minimizes waste by storing the ginger in a thermostatic warehouse.

Gross profit for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011 totaled $13.6 million, an increase of 61.8% compared to $8.4 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010. Gross profit margin improved to 42.2% for the 2011 fiscal year as compared to 37.5% for the 2010 fiscal year. The increase in gross profit margin was primarily attributable to the increase in selling prices and control of material costs and overhead resulting from better utilization of facilities due to economies of scale from larger output volume.

Operating expenses for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011 totaled $4.5 million as compared to $3.1 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010. The increase in operating expenses for fiscal 2011 consisted of an increase in selling and marketing expenses due primarily to the increase in distribution costs and an increase in sales and marketing activities to both existing and new customers.

Net income for the 2011 fiscal year ended June 30, 2011 totaled $9 million, an increase of 72.1% compared to $5.2 million for the 2010 fiscal year ended June 30, 2010. Basic earnings per share for fiscal 2011 were $0.21, based on 42.3 million basic shares outstanding versus earnings per share of $0.18 for fiscal 2010, based on 28.8 million basic shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share for fiscal 2011 totaled $0.15 based on 59.6 million shares outstanding, as compared to $0.07 based on 72.3 million shares outstanding for fiscal 2010.

Shareholder's equity increased 146% to $23.7 million as of June 30, 2011, compared to $9.6 million as of June 30, 2010.
